happy for Daveed but sad Janowicz couldn't make the most of his chances in the match. Hope he uses this to propel him to better things. He is now in the top 40 and gets seeded in slams.. from 220 this year!

Making the semifinals at WTF will be the bigger challenge after his run here against opponents who are well rested. If he does indeed make the semis, then it is any one's game. Wasn't Ferrer the finalist/runner up at the tour finals in 2007 ?

Beat Djokovic and lost to Federer in both runs!

As long as he does not meet Federer in the latter stages he has a chance.

Happy for David, but man what a horrible trophy. I'll bet when you win a trophy like that you get a free bowl of soup. That trophy was so ugly it could be a modern art masterpiece.

I think it's a wonderful trophy, and very unique in sports. Don't know if you noticed but that trophy has the actually draw on it. All the branches have names of the players in the tourney on them with the winner on the main stem. Very cool in my opinion!

I agree. I think it's beautiful.
I guess maybe some don't like that it doesn't quite look like trophies usually do?.

I thought it was the names of the past winners on the branches.

Thankfully they went back to the tree edition of the trophy. It is very thougful than that nasty bird **** trophy Federer and Soderling recieved when they won Bercy.

Janowicz was an unforced error machine in this match. I'm surprised that Ferrer beat him with only 1 break per set...

for someone who just won 3-4 hard back to back matches at this level, i was surprised he had enough energy for giving Ferrer a hard fight.
of course his level went down! it was obvious it'll happen eventually.

True. Good for Ferrer that he cannot meet Fed in the semis as he is in his group. I somehow don't see Fed making the final this time. Even if he makes the semis, I think he will lose to either Berd/Murray/Novak. Fed's form has not been all that great post USO, so he is surely not the favorite here.
